No- in your 13th week you add milk for a week and then back to it again.
Oh good I was panicking thinking I am not gunna lose all my weight in that time! How much milk do you have cxx
I can't remember exactly but something like 400ml of skimmed milk a day - less if it's other sorts of milk. It takes the calories up to a week and then you go back on the 4 packs with no milk. This can carry on (milk week after 12 weeks) as long as you need! I'm wanting to lose 9 stone and I have my second milk week starting on Friday...
I want to loose 9 stone two how much have you lost do far? Xxx
6 stone 4 lbs in 25 weeks - I think I'll be done in April(!)
Wow that's amazing well done you! I have lost a stone and feel better you must feel amazing xxxxx
It's all a little bit sureal to be honest! I'm really happy with my weight loss so far. I knew after about 8 weeks that I would definitely get to goal and I've never felt like that on a diet before! I do need to be very careful around RTM though as I think that will be tough for me.
There is a page in the 'my journey' book with the amounts of milk.

Thanks Jenm. There must be some alternative which will increase your calorie intake without taking you out of ketosis. I guess if all else fails perhaps you could do LL lite for a week?
Milk week is just a recommendation and not a necessity. I never did it as milk brings me out in spots. Your LLC will tell you when it's milk week but they won't check if you've done it. It's just a legality that they have to have it as part of the plan due to NICE guidelines although unofficially very few people do it.

It's true that a number of people don't do it. However, NICE recommend that you follow a VLCD for a maximum of 12 weeks. Milk week is LL's answer to this. Personally I have no intention of ignoring health advice. The whole point of doing this for me is health orientated so I will always do milk week. Why take the risk for the sake of a loss which might be 1 lb higher?
When you get closer to that week just discuss it with your LLC.

I did this diet 6 years ago, and the milk week didnt exist then. I was on it for 6 months solid and was fine. Infact i was more than fine. I lost 9 n half stone in those 6 months and not having milk didnt hurt me x
